The Young and the Restless News: Conner Floyd Admits To Having Prop Gun Mishaps On The Set Of The Show
Speaking to Soap Opera Digest in a new interview, the handsome actor says that there have been plenty of bloopers and mishaps with prop guns, badges and handcuffs on the set of the show. Conner recalled, “There was a scene where I was putting all of this evidence into an evidence bag. Before the scene, the crew told me, ‘We only have two of these, so don’t mess up,’ because you have to peel the seal off, put the evidence in and then seal it back up and you can’t reopen it. Well, I messed up my line so they were like, ‘Okay, we’ve got another bag, don’t worry.’ So they give me the other bag, I peeled the seal, stuck the evidence back in and I messed up my line again.”
The actor continued, “Then we had this 15-minute fiasco of trying to finagle this bag back to looking like I had just peeled the seal off and in the third take, another complication happened, so we had to go back and do it again. Me and evidence bags aren’t too good of friends.”
The Young and the Restless News: Conner Did All Of His Research
Conner also admitted to watching plenty of YouTube tutorials about handling guns. He said, “You also see [the use of guns] on TV a lot, so I was taking notes. I watched Prisoners with Jake Gyllenhaal to see how he does all of his stuff because I really enjoyed that movie. I also looked up how to arrest somebody, so I definitely YouTubed a few things.”
